The alpha particle basically has the mass of a helium atom, since it is a helium nucleus. The beta particle has the mass of an electron - a beta particle is either an electron or an anti-electron. The gamma ray has no rest mass, since it moves at the speed of light. However, it can have a fairly high energy, and therefore an associated mass. The mass varies in this case; that is, gamma rays can have different energies, and therefore different masses.
